Share Your Ideas for the Cancer Moonshot

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) has launched the Cancer Research Ideas (https://cancerresearchideas.cancer.gov/) online platform to collect community input to inform the National Cancer Moonshot Initiative. We hope to hear from a broad cross-section of the community, including researchers, advocates, philanthropists, data scientists, and members of the public, about their ideas for speeding up scientific advances in cancer research and spurring progress in prevention, treatment, and care. Visit the website by July 1 to submit your ideas or comment on the submissions we've already received. And please help us spread the word to your colleagues and communities and encourage them to share their ideas as well.
